This 5-mile hike features amazing views of the canyon, brook, and surrounding mountains. From the trailhead, we’ll hike down into the canyon on the Beaver Brook trail, hike alongside the Beaver Brook, and ascend back to the Beaver Brook trail (and trailhead) using the Chavez trail. This hike requires some scrambling and hiking on several narrow ledges. Ascending the Chavez trail requires an 1,100 foot climb over 2.1 miles. This is considered a moderate hike. If it’s a hot day, this is a difficult hike. There is no shorter option here. Bring hiking boots, layers, sun protection, liquids, and trail lunch.

 

 

 

This hike to Lake Isabelle is in The Brainard Lake National Recreation Area which requires parking reservations. If driving you can reserve your spot using recreation.gov beginning July 30th. Select the Brainard Lake Picnic site/trailhead and the 8:00am time slot. This is a beautiful 6.7 mile hike with 672 feet of elevation gain beginning at 10,325 feet and ending at 10,955 feet. We will also have a shorter hike around Long lake that is 5 miles and only a 400 ft. elevation gain. Due to the altitude those with breathing issues may want to opt for the shorter hike or wait for the next hike.

 

 

 

Located in Roosevelt National Forrest, this , 1,000-foot gain, lollipop-style hike features great views of the St. Vrain Creek and the northern mountains, including Long’s Peak. From the trailhead, we’ll hike alongside the St. Vrain Creek for almost two miles before ascending the loop trail to Miller Rock, where we can enjoy lunch while admiring the amazing views. This hike requires some easy scrambling and is considered a moderate hike. For a shorter day, do the out-and-back alongside the creek (without ascending to Miller Rock) for a total of 3.7 miles and 471 feet of elevation gain. Bring hiking boots, layers, sun protection, liquids, and trail lunch.

 

 

This hike in rocky Mountain National Park near Estes Park is an out and back hike of 3.2 miles, with an elevation gain of 987 feet. Although short it is considered moderately challenging due to elevation gain and some rocky areas and climbing steps. Starting elevation is 7852 feet and the top is 8831 feet and it is all uphill to the top. There is a rest room near the top which is very basic, but functional. This hike features pretty views and interesting rock formations. Due to the lower elevation this hike can get warm so plenty of water is a must. Due to the short length of the hike there will not be a shorter option. The hike begins before the main entrance to the park so reservations will not be necessary but early time is advised to avoid heat and crowd

The hiking club schedules hikes between from mid-April to mid-October. We meet in the club house parking lot to car pool to the trailhead. Most of the scheduled hikes are rated as moderate with a shorter option available for many of the hikes. It is the responsibility of each hiker to know their own limits and come prepared. An email will be sent to each member the week before the hike with meeting time, hike details, and directions. This information will also be published in the Tuesday E-Blast. To be added to our mailing list or for questions please contact Amy Downey at amyjdowney53@gmail.com.

All women in HTC are invited to join the Fall 2024 Bible study.  

“NO OTHER GODS: The Unrivaled Pursuit of Christ” by Kelly Minter

We often think of idols as ancient graven images or golden calves, but God’s people still battle idolatry every day.  Our idols look more familiar—money, fame, power, work, ministry, and people.  As you identify your modern-day idols and dethrone them, you’ll discover that Jesus can do what no other god can.

 

o   The study is 8 weeks long and includes a weekly video and class sessions using a study book with daily lessons.

o   Thursdays, September 12—October 31, 2024

o   OR Fridays, September 13—November 1, 2024

o   9:30 AM until 11:30 AM

o   HTC Clubhouse

 

When you purchase your book, please make sure you are getting Kelly’s updated version!  (In our last study, the updated version was quite different!)  Here is the Amazon link to the 2023 version which also includes free video access:

 

If you would like to attend, contact Deb Erickson to register or if you have questions. Please specify the Thursday or Friday morning class.
